Alright for all the Halo lovers and players, I got my copy of Halo 3 the day it came out, I played it everyday for a few hours, well on the third day i was horrified to find out that i had the red ring of death. I said to myself, "ok, just my luck." The next day i was talking to someother people and they were having the same issues they got the ring right after they played halo, and some of them just got fixed unit a month ago. Anyone else had this phenomenon?

I've had mine nearly a year and I've had no problems at all. And I do play it very regularly (nearly every night) for long periods of time (a hour or so each night, 3 or 4 a day at weekends). And I've taken it to LAN parties and had no hardware issues.

Btw, the red ring of death is a "general hardware failure" it has nothing to do with software. The only reason you might have a few cases of people playing Halo 3 and getting the ring of death is because a lot of people are playing a lot of Halo 3 right now. Its generally agreed that the general hardware failure stems from the excessive amount of heat produced by the console, and if you play it a lot, that'll increase the chance of a fault arising, if it indeed will.

If you have a RRoD just call MS, even launch consoles are covered for that. They'll repair or replace it.
